I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

The radio host this morning was also praising Baldwin and Martin, but a lot of callers begged to differ.

I really really really want to go home sick, but one of my coworkers has already sent out an email that she's also sick but working from home. I'm hoping that maybe I can at least go home early, because I've got an incipient cough, a dizzy head, clammy skin, and I'm exhausted because every time I rolled over last night, I woke up because I couldn't breathe until I repositioned myself.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So, would a lava lamp work on Jupiter? Apparently it would.

Lava Lamp in a Centrifuge

Would a Lava Lamp work on Jupiter with its higher gravity? To find out, I built a large centrifuge out of Meccano and spun up a lava lamp.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Salon's review of last night's Oscars:

So fundamentally crack-addled.

I had more dreams last night about work. They weren't really anxiety dreams. More what-to-do-next dreams. I feel I'm giving up too much subconscious space, but it's not exactly like I have anything else to fill it all with.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Cameron peaked with Aquaman for me and that one doesn't exist. I've seen Holmes, Coraline, and Basterds(Basterds totally didn't do it for me...completely paralyzed with not caring very much.)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Crappity. I left my iTouch at home. No music at work for me. Yes, technically, I could stream something, but we aren't supposed to do that on our work computers. I hate working without music.

Martin and Baldwin were the worst part(s) of the show last night. So unnecessary and so unfunny.

World's laziest predators

A bunch of cute photos of predators failing to engage in predation when given the chance. One photo appears to be of a dog trying to hump a tiger, so perhaps NSFW?

I went on an excursion this morning and an hour after I left home, I realized I had forgotten my wallet.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I didn't watch the Oscars, but this morning on the radio I heard part of Baldwin and Martin's routine about Meryl Streep, and wow, was it unfunny.
